Now is a good time to think about a small way you can help, even it it’s just making an effort to pick up some rubbish on a walk. For me, it’s winter and I start to feel a bit down from the lack of sunlight hours so i like to give myself a very small and achievable goal that can give me a little boost of serotonin. Between winter bugs, storms, and work things, I haven’t been getting outside enough. I want to make an effort to go walk the local reserves at least once next month and pick up rubbish. It’s small but it leaves me room to do even more if I’m feeling up to it without feeling guilty if I only have one good day of energy.
What small things are you wanting to do?
In the winter, take oral vitamin D drops on days you don’t expect to get 15 minutes of sun on bare skin. Same goes for the summer if you don’t get outside much.
In the summer I try and walk every day. A small change I’m trying to make is to make beans once a week.
I really should go get some vitamin D supplements, that’s a good idea
